1.Nature of operations:

 

Business:

 

Score Media and Gaming Inc. ("theScore" or the "Company") empowers millions of sports fans through its digital media and sports betting products. Its media app 'theScore' is one of the most popular in North America, delivering fans highly-personalized live scores, news, stats, and betting information from their favorite teams, leagues, and players. The Company's sports betting app 'theScore Bet' delivers an immersive and holistic mobile sports betting experience and is currently available to place wagers in New Jersey, Colorado, and Indiana. Publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange (SCR), theScore also creates and distributes innovative digital content through its web, social and esports platforms. The Company is organized and operates as one operating segment for the purpose of making operating decisions and assessing performance.

 

2.Significant accounting policies:

 

Basis of presentation and statement of compliance:

 

These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) using International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting and using the same accounting policies and methods of computation theScore applied in its consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended August 31, 2020.

 

The notes presented in these interim financial statements include only significant changes and transactions occurring since August 31, 2020, and do not include all disclosures required by IFRS for annual financial statements. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended August 31, 2020.

 

These interim financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is theScore's functional currency, and have been prepared primarily using the historical cost basis.

 

These interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of theScore on January 13, 2020.

2.Significant accounting policies (continued):

 

(a) Measurement Uncertainty

 

The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, consistent with those disclosed in the 2020 annual consolidated financial statements and described in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Estimates are based on historical experience and other assumptions that are considered reasonable in the circumstances. The actual amount or values may vary in certain instances from the assumptions and estimates made. Changes will be recorded, with corresponding effect in profit or loss, when, and if, better information is obtained.

 

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact the Company’s business and activities will depend on future developments which remain highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, severity of the coronavirus and actions taken by the Canadian and US authorities, the postponement, suspension, cancellation, rescheduling and resumption of sporting events, the impact of the pandemic on consumer and advertiser spending, and the ability or willingness of suppliers and vendors to provide products and services.

 

The actual and threatened spread of COVID-19 globally could also have a material adverse effect on the regional economies in which the Company operates, could continue to negatively impact stock markets, including the trading price of the Company’s Class A shares, could cause continued interest rate volatility and movements and could adversely impact the Company’s ability to raise capital.

 

Any of these developments, and others, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, affairs, operations, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, availability of credit and foreign exchange exposure. In addition, because of the severity and global nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is possible that estimates in the Company’s financial statements could change in the near term and the effect of any such changes could be material, which could result in, among other things, an impairment of non-current assets and a change in the expected credit losses on accounts receivable. The Company monitors the situation and its impacts or potential impacts on its business on an ongoing basis.

4.Intangible and other assets (continued):

 

Licenses and Other Assets include payments in respect of sports betting and online gaming related market access licenses and associated costs, as well as deposits on sports betting and online casino related rights and licenses.

 

5.Related party transactions:

 

In fiscal 2013, theScore entered into a lease for a property partially owned by the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The aggregate rent paid during the three months ended November 30, 2020 amounted to $10 (2019 - $10). In addition, the payable balances as at November 30, 2020 were $1 (2019 - $281) owing to Norwest Video Inc. for amounts to be reimbursed pursuant to its management services agreement with the Company. These transactions are recorded at the exchange amount, being the amount agreed upon between the parties, and shall be repayable within 12 months.

 

6.Tax credits:

 

As at November 30, 2020, tax credits recoverable of $1,616 are classified as current, in the consolidated statements of financial position (August 31, 2020 – $1,616). Tax credits recoverable reflect management's best estimate of credits for which realization is reasonably assured based on consideration of both certificates of eligibility received from Ontario Creates (formerly, the Ontario Media Development Corporation) for specific claims and Ontario Creates’ historical acceptance of expenditures of a similar nature for refundable credit. No tax credits were accrued during the three month periods ended November 30, 2020 and 2019.

 

7.Capital risk management:

 

theScore's objectives in managing capital are to maintain its liquidity to fund current and future development and growth of the business. The capital structure consists of shareholders’ equity and cash.

 

theScore manages and adjusts its capital structure in consideration of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets.

Three months ended November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019 (unaudited) 

 

8.Financial risk management:

 

The Company’s loans and borrowings include:

 

   November 30, 2020   August 31, 2020 
Revolving term credit facility  $-   $6,250 
Current computer equipment financing   401    395 
   $401   $6,645 
           
Non-current computer equipment financing  $638   $740 

 

The computer equipment financing relates to the financing arrangement for servers and other equipment and has been calculated using discounted cash flows for future payments over the three-year term of the borrowing using the effective interest rate of 5.62%.

 

theScore has exposure to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk from its use of financial instruments. This note presents information about theScore's exposure to each of these risks and theScore's objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing these risks.

 

(a)Credit risk:

 

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to theScore if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from theScore's receivables from customers. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. theScore's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer.

 

As at November 30, 2020 and August 31, 2020, theScore had a loss allowance for trade receivables of $44 and $10, respectively.

 

At November 30, 2020 and August 31, 2020, $389 and $655, respectively, of accounts receivable were considered past due, which is defined as amounts outstanding beyond normal credit terms and conditions for respective customers that can extend up to 150 days from the date of initial invoicing. theScore believes that its allowance for doubtful accounts sufficiently reflects the related credit risk based on the nature of theScore's customers and consideration of past performance.

Three months ended November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019 (unaudited)

 

8.Financial risk management (continued):

 

theScore has customer concentration risk as one customer, a programmatic network, represented 19% of revenue, for the three months ended November 30, 2020 (November 30, 2019 – one customer, a programmatic network, represented 13% of revenue).

 

As at November 30, 2020 one customer, a media agency, represented 9% of the accounts receivable balance (August 31, 2020 – two customers, a media agency and programmatic network, represented 13% and 13% of accounts receivable balance, respectively).

 

(b)Liquidity risk:

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that theScore will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. As at November 30, 2020 theScore had cash and cash equivalents of $19,216 (August 31, 2020 - $40,116), restricted cash related to customer deposits on the betting platform of $5,575 (August 31, 2020 - $1,859), accounts receivable of $10,150 (August 31, 2020 - $5,455), tax credits recoverable of $1,616 (August 31, 2020 - $1,616) and accounts payable and accrued liabilities to third parties of $16,191 (August 31, 2020 - $10,353). Accounts payable and accrued liabilities have contracted maturities of less than twelve months.

 

Management prepares budgets and cash flow forecasts to assist in managing liquidity risk. theScore has a history of operating losses, and can be expected to generate continued operating losses and negative cash flows in the future while it carries out its current business plan to further develop and expand its digital media business.

 

The Company also has access to an uncommitted variable demand credit facility (the “Demand Credit Facility”) of up to $5,000 with a Canadian chartered bank, of which $5,000 was available as at November 30, 2020. The amount available under the Demand Credit Facility is based on a percentage of the Company’s accounts receivable and those of certain of its subsidiaries. The Demand Credit Facility is available for working capital purposes and is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries.

 

The Demand Credit Facility bears an interest rate at the lenders Prime rate plus 1.00% per annum. The Demand Credit Facility is repayable on demand and is subject to certain financial covenants.

Three months ended November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019 (unaudited)

 

8.Financial risk management (continued):

 

In July 2020, the Company entered into a $6,250 revolving term credit facility with the same Canadian chartered bank that maintains the Demand Credit Facility, supported by Export Development Corporation's Business Credit Availability Program ("EDC BCAP"). The revolving term credit facility is available to provide additional liquidity to the Company and to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's operations. The revolving term credit facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The revolving term credit facility bears an interest rate at the lender's prime rate plus 2.00% per annum and is subject to a facility fee in respect of the EDC BCAP program of 1.80%. The revolving term credit facility is repayable by July 15, 2021, is extendable for a further period of 364 days in certain circumstances and is subject to certain financial covenants. On November 27, 2020, the Company repaid the full balance owing on the revolving term credit facility in the amount of $6,250.

 

While theScore can utilize its cash, cash equivalents and credit facilities to fund its operating and development expenditures, it does not have access to other committed sources of funding, and depending upon the level of expenditures and whether profitable operations can be achieved, may be required to seek additional funding in the future.

 

(c)Market risk:

 

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity prices, will affect theScore's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments.

 

The Company does not engage in hedging or use of derivative instruments.

 

The Company's head office is located in Toronto, Canada. Certain of theScore's customers and suppliers are based in Canada and, therefore, transact in Canadian dollars. Other customers and suppliers are based outside of Canada and the associated financial assets and liabilities originate in U.S. dollars, Euros or Pounds Sterling, thereby exposing theScore to foreign exchange risk. Total U.S. dollar denominated receivables as at November 30, 2020 and August 31, 2020 were $3,569 and $2,553, respectively. The Company’s foreign exchange revaluation is included in finance income in the condensed consolidated interim statement of comprehensive loss, and primarily relates to advances to subsidiaries, and for the three months ended November 30, 2020 was ($533) (2019 – ($84)).

(d)Fair values:

 

The Company provides disclosure of the three-level hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the fair value measurement. The three levels of fair value hierarchy based on the reliability of inputs are as follows:

 

Level 1 - inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

 

Level 2 - inputs are based on observable market data, either directly or indirectly other than quoted prices; and

 

Level 3 - inputs are not based on observable market data.

 

The fair values of theScore's financial assets and liabilities, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities were deemed to approximate their carrying amounts due to the relative short-term nature of these financial instruments. The fair value of the convertible debenture was deemed to approximate the carrying amount due to the short passage of time between issuance date and the date of these interim financial statements and the risk factors for the Company remaining consistent within this period.

 

9.Commitments:

 

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements or long-term obligations other than the agreements noted below.

 

theScore has the following undiscounted contractual obligations (in thousands of Canadian dollars) at November 30, 2020:

10.Stock based compensation:

 

(a)  Stock Option Plan:

 

theScore has a stock option and restricted stock unit plan (the "Plan") under which the Board of Directors, or a committee appointed for such purpose, may, from time to time, grant to directors, officers and full-time employees of, or consultants to, theScore options to acquire Class A Subordinate Voting shares and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Under the Plan, the exercise price of an option is based on the closing trading price on the day prior to the grant. An option's maximum term is 10 years and options generally vest in six month tranches over a period of three to five years. RSUs entitle a holder, subject to the holder’s satisfaction of any conditions, restrictions, performance objectives, vesting period or limitations imposed under the Plan or set out in a grant letter, and subject to the Company’s clawback policy, to receive a payment in Class A Subordinate Voting shares issued from treasury on the date when the RSU is vested. The maximum term of an RSU is 10 years. Certain of theScore’s employees and consultants participate in the Plan in exchange for services provided to theScore.

 

The following table summarizes the status of options granted to employees of theScore under the Plan:

11.Revenue:

 

Revenue from media activities for the three months ended November 30, 2020 was $10,579 (2019 - $9,219).

 

The Company generated ($270) (2019 – $242) of gross gaming revenue1 for the three months ended November 30, 2020. After taking into account promotional costs and fair value adjustments of unsettled bets, the Company generated negative net gaming revenue2 of $2,040 (2019 – $26) for the period.

 

Revenue from Canadian sources for the three months ended November 30, 2020 was $4,793 (2019 - $3,542), while revenue from non-Canadian sources (predominantly USA) for the same period was $3,746 (2019 - $5,677). Revenue from non-Canadian sources includes both media and gaming related amounts.

 

12.Basic and diluted income (loss) per share:

 

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share:

 

   Three months ended, 
    November 30, 2020    November 30, 2019 
Net loss attributable to shareholders - basic and diluted  $ (12,673)    $(4,110)
           
Weighted average shares outstanding - basic and diluted   363,300,812    357,005,888 
           
Loss per share - basic and diluted  $(0.03)  $(0.01)

 

During the three months ended November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019 there were no outstanding stock options, warrants or shares resulting from the convertible debenture included in the computation of diluted loss per share as the impact would have been anti-dilutive.

 

 

1 Gross gaming revenue is calculated as dollar amounts wagered by customers, less the dollar amounts paid out to customers in respect of such wagers which have settled in the applicable period.

2 Net gaming revenue is measured as gross gaming revenue, less free bets, promotional costs, bonuses and fair value adjustments on unsettled bets. Refer to Note 15 for more details on unsettled bets.

13.Capital

 

Exercise of over-allotment of the public offering:

14.Convertible Debenture:

 

On September 5, 2019, the Company completed a non-brokered financing of $40,000 by way of issuance of convertible debentures (“convertible debenture”). The debentures carry an interest rate of 8.0%, payable in arrears, in equal semi-annual payments on the last day of February and August in each year commencing on February 29, 2020, with a maturity date of August 31, 2024, or the earlier date of redemption, repayment or conversion.

 

At the holder’s option, the debenture may be converted into Class A subordinate voting shares of the Company (“Class A Shares”) at any time prior to the close of business on the earlier of the business day immediately preceding the maturity date and the business day immediately preceding the date fixed for redemption of the debenture. The conversion price will be $0.75 for each Class A Share, being a conversion rate of 1,333.3333 Class A Shares issuable for each one thousand dollars principal amount of the debenture, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.

 

Subject to specified conditions, the debenture may be redeemed at the Company’s option at par plus accrued and unpaid interest at any time after August 31, 2023 if the volume weighted average trading price of the Class A Shares during the 20 trading days ending on the fifth trading day preceding the date on which notice of the redemption is given is not less than 125% of the conversion price, or if the principal sum of the debenture outstanding is $4,000 or less.

 

Upon the occurrence of a change of control of the Company or the sale by the Company of its core assets, the Company will be required to make an offer to purchase the debenture at a price equal to 105% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.

 

Transaction costs of $3,031, were incurred and have been recorded pro rata against the liability and equity components.

14.Convertible Debenture (continued):

 

Interest and accretion expense for the three months ended November 30, 2020 was $1,364 (2019 - $1,167). As of November 30, 2020 the Company has elected to accrue unpaid interest of $3,228, to the principal sum outstanding of the debenture.

 

On inception, the Company recorded the following amounts related to the convertible debenture:

 

Liability component  $27,018 
Transaction costs   (2,047)
   $24,971 
      
Equity component (conversion feature)  $12,982 
Transaction costs   (984)
Income tax impact of convertible debenture   (3,107)
   $8,891 

 

For accounting purposes, the debentures are separated into their liability and equity components by first valuing the liability component. The fair value of the liability component at the time of issue was calculated as the discounted cash flows for the debentures assuming a 19% discount rate, which was the estimated rate for a similar debenture without a conversion feature. The fair value of the equity component (conversion feature) was determined at the time of issue as the difference between the face value of the debentures and the fair value of the liability component, less a deferred income tax adjustment to reflect the book to tax difference in value of the debentures at the time of issuance.

 

15. Other financial liabilities

 

   Three months ended November 30, 
   2020   2019 
Unsettled bets - at fair value  $84   $27 

 

Other financial liabilities consist of open betting positions (unsettled bets) at period end. Unsettled bets are accounted for as derivative financial instruments and are carried at fair value. Gains and losses from these positions are recognised in revenue.

17.Income Taxes

 

As a result of the income tax impact related to the convertible debenture issue a deferred tax liability of $3.1 million was recorded in 2019, in the same period the Company recorded a deferred tax recovery of $3.1 million, related to operating loss carry forwards through the statement of operations, resulting in a net deferred taxes of nil at November 30, 2019.  At November 30, 2020 net deferred tax remains nil. As the liability portion of the convertible debt accretes the deferred tax liability and corresponding deferred tax asset are reduced accordingly through the statement of operations resulting in a deferred tax expense (recovery) of nil as at November 30, 2020.

 

18.Subsequent Event

 

On December 17, 2020, the Company completed a short-form bought deal prospectus offering where 28,572,000 Class A subordinate voting shares were issued at a price per share of $1.40. On December 31, 2020, the underwriters exercised their overallotment option in full, purchasing an additional 4,285,800 Class A subordinate voting shares for at a price per share of $1.40, resulting in total gross proceeds of the offering of $46,001.
